Room was not clean. Shower tub level was high that you'd have to be a track and field athlete to get into and take a shower. It can be dangerous exiting the shower tub. The tub got clogged while taking a shower and the water level was rising fast. No tub shower curtain and water splashed all over the floor. The sink had rust stains. When I was brushing my teeth, I noticed water was dripping and falling on my foot. When I went to bed, the bed smelled like sweat. They did not change the sheets apparently. There was what appeared to be mold on the sheet. This is a room with $200 per night. I would like to ask for a refund.

Everything is falling a part. Spiders inside of the room. If you take a shower water running to the floor through the crack between the glass. Towels are for midgets and they are stained up. I my opinion this hotel should be closed, because of health hazard. Stuff doesn't give a about anything. Last 5 years I've been in 35 different hotels. This one is worse by far.
